One never knows what one will find hanging on a pasture fence. We've been here five years next month, and I've been near this part of the fence many times. There's a small gate to the field just 10' or so to the right of where this was hanging. Right nearby is an old rick made of pallets for holding hay I think. I put a couple of juniper saplings I cut down next to the fence there yesterday and glanced over and said "something don't look right there" I'm guessing someone used it to cut some baler string or such and just hung it there for whatever reason. Scales have disappeared off the handle. No rust to speak of, as it's stainless with aluminum (?) frame, still opened OK. It's now got some Kroil on it and sitting for a day or so. I'll sharpen it up some and then stick it on the pants I wear around for doing yardwork. I misplaced the El Cheapo, $5 buy a ticket at the NRA banquet gun raffle and get a pocketknife just a couple of weeks ago. I'll take a free replacement, and if I end up hanging it on a fence, no love lost, eh?

Sunrise yesterday over the fence by the creek and, it's that time of year for nice sunsets.................which aren't the result of smoke from wildfires: Sunset over the compost pile:

I like that horse. I'd like to have a horse. I'm too old now. Life stinks somedays. He's a bad ass, and the wimminz dig him. Just like they do me. Mining claim I found while trapping last winter from the early 70's. The jar had been through a fire and the paper was singed and too fragile to really get a good look at, so I couldn't get any more specifics.

You up hunting the high country Fats? Was this past week with daughter. 6-8k Just above Arnold and Big Trees. Tag soup. Saw some monsters hanging though right after that storm.

They should be moving down, if not already, then soon with that snow? We are done. Last day tomorrow though for season. Checking the Bear Valley cam it's mostly melted away. Monster 4by takin in White Pines about 3k elevation probably a local though.

We think this is the house our parents lived in the first couple years after they married, The nails - what there were - were square - looked hand made.
